No chance Rollins wins - although he will be involved in the match in some way. He's ticketed to face HHH at Wrestlemania, and they don't need a belt to be involved in that match heading into Wrestlemania.

By myself. I can't handle watching with other people even if they are Michigan fans. I'm a ball of nervous energy even before sure things, and every word somebody says during a game makes me angrier. If Michigan pulls away I may emerge from my cocoon mid- to late-4th quarter.

Yup. We are unwatchable (went there for undergrad). I don't think we've won more than 3 games in any year since I started going there in 2003. I'm 4th generation at UM, so I've always loved Michigan athletics. Luckily, I didn't have to make a choice when I went to Cornell because Cornell is so terrible at everything (except hockey, wrestling and basketball for 3 years).

Rome must not have understood the context. Winston went to Harbaugh for advice on how to handle the draft process. He wasn't there to learn life lessons from harbaugh like "don't steal." He was there to learn how to answer those questions when they come up. Harbaugh gave him advice on how he thought it should be handled for purposes of NFL interviews. Rome is an idiot.

I was once at Yankee stadium and saw a fan fall off the upper deck onto the screen behind home plate. The guy was drunk and thought it was awesome. Just delayed the game for like 20 minutes and got him arrested.

I wouldn't want him in the first round either. Drops too many balls, was never as dominant as he should have been given his size/speed. Maybe Gardner had something to do with it, but he definitely didn't look like a first round talent to me this year.

Coaching change...no question. I can put on a game at work and listen while I get work done (until the last 2 minutes). But I have been checking about 5 websites seemingly every 15 minutes during the CC.

Nope. First of all, who wants a coach who doubts his own ability so much as to be scared away from a job because of the coach at another school?

Second of all, why would anybody be "afraid" of Urban? With Brady Hoke (who we all agree was not a great football coach) Michigan lost by one point after failing on a late 2 point conversion, and with this year's craptastic team was playing even with OSU for 3 quarters.

A good coach would take UM to a level where they can compete, a great coach (JH) would make UM a national force.

I don't know if he's interested and I'm not sure Michigan is interested, but this is a useless quote. What's he supposed to tell a recruit on an in-home? " I'm here to recruit you to LSU, but if my alma mater calls I'll be on the first plane out?" Even if he hedged, the recruit wouldn't be comfortable with LSU. Until he is offered the job, he needs to tell everybody at LSU he's staying because if he doesn't, his recruiting class will fall apart and his players will begin to be unsure of their future coach.

You're right, four years isn't generally enough time. However, in this case it was. Hoke's teams have regressed each year in terms of wins and performance. He lost at home this year to Utah, Maryland and Minnesota. Ticket sales were plummeting and recruits were jumping ship.

The biggest issue was development. Gardner regressed over his 2.5 years of starting. When Shane got a chance he looked terrible. A change needed to be made - Hoke didn't get screwed, he simply wasn't good enough.

Don't forget about the Cowboys who will probably beat the Giants tonight. They've got a manageable schedule and will have a good shot at getting a spot. It's those 4 teams for 2 spots...lets go lions, Seahawks and ucccchhh Cowboys (I'm a Giants fan, but Michigan comes before the Giants)
